Industry Leading Performance

9

Cotton Valley

» Advanced completion design relative to most in

industry, improving well performance

• Incorporated Haynesville designs into CV

completion

• Higher perf cluster density

• Tighter frac stage spacing

• Higher fluid and proppant volumes

» Plan to apply Sabine’s completion design across

combined company

» Experience: With almost 70 CV completions

combined, knowledge to high-grade acreage

Haynesville

» Latest Sabine performance on-par with NLA

Haynesville “core” – with lower cost structure

» Tighter perf clusters, frac stages, utilizing

“zipper” fracs

» Higher stimulation volumes

• More economical proppant, reduced

chemical usage has offset cost impact of

larger stimulations

» Deeper landing point in reservoir, contacts

more rock

Note: Industry results represent entire Cotton Valley and Haynesville plays, respectively.

Significant Eagle Ford Position

10

Acreage Overview Asset Overview

» Sabine’s results have extended the best part of the Eagle Ford

trend further northeast, with results comparable to core players

» Sabine acreage is generally in the gas-condensate window

• Higher pressures and gas reservoirs improve recoveries

• Best wells are in this part of the hydrocarbon envelope

» Forest acreage subject to Schlumberger agreement whereby

Schlumberger receives a 50% working interest in Forest’s Eagle

Ford assets in exchange for a $90 million drilling carry

• $29 million of carry remaining as of 12/31/13

» Leveraging experience from Haynesville resource development and

targeting of Upper Eagle Ford to generate superior results

» 2013 Sabine Shiner Area Eagle Ford Program – 10 wells

» 2014 Plans

• Currently operating four rigs in DeWitt/Lavaca and two rigs in

Gonzales

• Greater scale allows for combined company to evaluate

opportunity to shift more capital to East Texas

Devon (former GeoSouthern)

Penn Virginia

Sabine acreage borders Devon and Penn Virginia, with comparable results. Devon/GeoSouthern sale and recent PVA stock rally are additional positive indications of industry/market view of this part of Eagle Ford play.

Sabine

Eagle Ford Performance

11

» In northern DeWitt and Lavaca counties, Sabine has

validated that the upper Eagle Ford has excellent

productivity

» Also unique to industry, Sabine brought its Haynesville

completion experience to the Eagle Ford

• Tighter perf cluster, frac stage spacing

• Hybrid fluid design with emphasis on high volumes of

slick water

• Lower strength proppant to reduce cost

• Less expensive proppant and reduced chemicals

helps offset cost of additional stimulation volumes

» Optimal landing point coupled with significant

stimulated rock volume translates into shallower

production declines

• Operators in Lower Eagle Ford tout higher 24-hour

IP’s, but first year production for Sabine wells is

comparable

Note: Industry results represent entire Eagle Ford Play

High Return Granite Wash Position

12

Acreage Overview Asset Overview

» Sabine operates ~ 33,500 net acres in oil window of play, shallowest

part of Granite Wash trend

• Outstanding productivity, with 8 of 17 horizontals producing (or

projected to produce) in excess of 200 Mboe in first year

• Two recent wells projected at 300-350 Mboe in first year

(~ 60% oil)

• Two years of identified drilling locations, with potential for up to

200 locations depending on western delineation results

• Wells to date have exhibited extremely strong economics, often

paying out in under a year

» Sabine is currently testing the western extent of the Granite Wash,

which could represent material upside to the inventory count on this

position

» Sabine 2013 Program Results – 5 wells

» 2014 Plans

• 2014 development plan: Running 2 rigs, balance of low-risk

development locations with measured step-out tests to the west

Mesa Vista and Lard Ranch have been extensions on-trend with several large Granite Wash developments. With the shallower depth, Mesa Vista also has a higher oil content.
